Thanks Ace

Things seemed to good to be true with the influx of quieter, younger Enviro400's at AZ.

Well the good news is, next year there may be plenty more younger Enviro400's where they came from as Manchester is set to welcome a large number of Euro6 engined Enviros early next year, so that may be the end for the Euro3 trash cans we are putting up with at the moment.

Magic Bus Trident seen this morning@10:45 heading south on the M66 near Edenfield.

Oh? That snook off quietly while no one was looking, or is it going to Cheltenham on loan for the Gold Cup?

Well at least they may get an upgrade to 58/09 reg Enviro400's. So at least the residents may get some sleep at night

Other than that, there's not much in there that we didn't already know.

Plenty of those dreaded 56 plate Enviro400's to be cascaded though, I wonder who'll be so unfortunate.

19103 arrived from Sharston on Monday at Wigan, it's been fitted with a ticket machine and dests programmed and is ready for service.
